If y use the default fstab file, and use cp commands to copy
files to the floppy, it does not sync the writes operations,
for example, if I copy 3 files, only the first will be
copied.


Dude, there is an umount command.

hello,
I forgot to say that I already did it: even if you umount the floppy,
it does not write all the files.


Then replace your floppy controller.

Are you serious ?
Excuse me, but it is a real problem for a newbie if this bug is not fixed.

If I configure my /etc/fstab with the next line, it works:
/dev/fd0      /floppy  vfat    defaults,user,noauto    0   0

But I don't know if it is the solution. Perhaps we can add the sync option ? so the line in fstab could be:
/dev/fd0      /floppy  vfat    sync,defaults,user,noauto    0   0

bye
